Took me a moment to realize what I was looking at. I like what you are trying to convey, but feel that a change in composition could improve it.

Had to look twice but once I saw the hands it made me smile. Beautifully captured, perfect timing. Great sense of design incorporated into this emotive image. Wonderful combination of colors. 10

a little confusing at first... maybe more open crop would make this better?

lovely picture. The colors and grain give this a strong mid 1970's feel for me. I wasn't even alive then. Weird huh? I guess that means that it contributes to the pic overall.

If you didn't want the grain, be sure to ask in the forums about 'Neat Image'. We'd be happy to help you figure that out if you want. Sometimes there's nothing at all wrong with leaving it in, but it will probably affect your score.

An emotional image - and I love the chubby little fist :)
